I have worked as a floor nurse for about nine years, all of it at Mercy Hospital. My time on the Transitional Care Unit has taught me lots about cardiology, managing critical patients, and interdepartmental cooperation. I enjoy the blend of science and people skills that nursing requires, and I particularly enjoy creating a trusting nurse, patient relationship.
